A simple tower to pressurize your rainwater.
2.3 ft of elevation = 1 psi or
1 ft elevation = .433 of water pressure
This tower waters our garden and provides a shower space underneath the structure. At 15 ft tall, we get about 6.5 lbs of pressure, plenty for gravity drip irrigation, and just enough for a nice, long, cool shower without feeling like you are wasting lots of water.
We use a solar pump to move water from our 5,000 gallon tank collector up to the 275 gallon IBC tote at the top of the tower, about once every week or two.
